The NYFS board of directors, guided by our mission and vision, brings together representatives from the cities we serve, our school district and county partners, public safety leaders, and community members from across the northeast St. Paul suburbs. This structure helps give the communities we serve a voice in how NYFS is guided and governed. The board provides oversight, financial accountability, and strategic direction for our mental health and community programs.
Our board includes representatives connected to many of the communities and public partners NYFS works with, including Arden Hills, Falcon Heights, Little Canada, Mounds View, New Brighton, Roseville, Shoreview, St. Anthony, White Bear Lake, Ramsey County, local schools, public safety agencies, the Minnesota Department of Human Services, and community organizations.
